Mac's Leg Amputation
Donation protected
Hi there, first of all, thank you even if you are unable to help me.
Short version:
Any money raised will be used for immediate amputation of his right front leg where the tumor is located. Without amputation there is a very high chance that his bone will deteriorate leading to a fractured leg in the next few weeks.
Long Version:
My dog was diagnosed with osteosarcoma 5 days ago. He has had some bad luck in the last 7 months and I have already maxed out my care credit and used my savings in treatment for other issues. He has completely recovered from all other issues and he is perfectly healthy other than his cancer, and it is not in his lungs which drastically increases his odds of survival. He is a retired service dog and a trained therapy dog, and my best friend. I am trying to cover some of the costs of amputation and chemo, I am trying to get another job to help cover treatments as well. I have 2 vets and am also working with UC Davis to try and get him in clinical trials. Any help would be appreciated. Mac is in the age group for the highest chance of survivability and I would like to act as soon as possible. I am already setting an appointment with UC Davis oncology to discuss his options moving forward, that will be this week sometime.
Thank you for any help, I will pay it forward in the near future.
